Why can't I open the power lift gate on the my Highlander?

Wayne Moore shows why your power lift gate on your Highlander most likely won't work.

Wow! excellent work, my lift gate was stocked and this saved me some thinking. Thank you.

[@andrewmurry3980]

Excellent explanation. Helped us out in a pinch. Thank you!

Great video! Saved me a headache!

I had this problem but it was not any of this. If you open the glove box, there is a tiny black push button that disables the power lift door. I had checked the cabin air quality filter earlier in the day and must of accidentally pushed it.

Thank you. The video did not fix my issue so as I am reading comments, I found yours. I changed my cabin filter yesterday and must have hit that button too. Thank you for the info. I would have been stressing out with a broken car!
